6x^{2}=36
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
x^{2}=\frac{36}{6}
Divide both sides by 6.
x^{2}=6
Divide 36 by 6 to get 6.
x=\sqrt{6} x=-\sqrt{6}
Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
6x^{2}=36
Multiply 3 and 2 to get 6.
6x^{2}-36=0
Subtract 36 from both sides.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{0^{2}-4\times 6\left(-36\right)}}{2\times 6}
This equation is in standard form: ax^{2}+bx+c=0. Substitute 6 for a, 0 for b, and -36 for c in the quadratic formula, \frac{-b±\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-4\times 6\left(-36\right)}}{2\times 6}
Square 0.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{-24\left(-36\right)}}{2\times 6}
Multiply -4 times 6.
x=\frac{0±\sqrt{864}}{2\times 6}
Multiply -24 times -36.
x=\frac{0±12\sqrt{6}}{2\times 6}
Take the square root of 864.
x=\frac{0±12\sqrt{6}}{12}
Multiply 2 times 6.
x=\sqrt{6}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±12\sqrt{6}}{12} when ± is plus.
x=-\sqrt{6}
Now solve the equation x=\frac{0±12\sqrt{6}}{12} when ± is minus.
x=\sqrt{6} x=-\sqrt{6}
The equation is now solved.
